Now primarily a non-exec director and investor for Ingentive via Woolf Partners, he provides strategic and tactical advice to the business around various matters and brings invaluable perspective, skills and experience to the team.
Peter started his career at the BBC and spent 7 years working up the ranks to run various mainframe and mini-computer technologies for the company.
